What's Going On In This Picture?
Looking to build your child's prediction and inferential reasoning skills? Check out this fun resource from the New York Times. Each week they post a different picture without the headline or caption. You and your child can look for clues to predict what you think the headline and caption are. - Sara Gildea, Resource Teacher

5th grade writers teach lots of information about an expert topic including facts, numbers, quotes and tips. We are writing nonfiction chapter books on a variety of topics including ice fishing, planting, football, Minecraft and special places like Ireland. - Caroline Martin
Thank you Mrs. Foskitt and our amazing 5th grade violin players! Such a wonderful showcase for Wells Road in the Spotlight! 🎻
Students in Mr. Faber's fourth grade class work together to find equivalent fractions. This is a big unit for fourth graders as they need to apply many different math skills.
Fourth grade students conducted a collision lab to understand how rivers are formed. The students poured 100, 200 and 300 ml of water into a bottle, let it roll down a ramp and collide with a cup. They then recorded the data and determined the average distance that the cup traveled. Super scientists at work! - Amy Lupoli, Science Coach
